Amad Diallo is United's first signing

The skilled Ivorian winger Amad Diallo, just 18 years old, has been announced as new signing of Manchester United. The English institution itself has recognized that the footballer “has been on the team's radar since 2016, when he played at the U-15 level, and the club has followed in his footsteps ever since. “

Diallo had to manage to get an Italian passport to make a stop at the 'Red Devils'. According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, finally has been able to solve the bureaucratic issue and deadlines have been respected. He will fly to Manchester in January to complete his move to the Solskjær-led team. The figures will be € 25M + € 15M in variables for Atalanta.

In October of last year, against Udinese, Amad Diallo became the first player born in 2002 to score in Serie A. He did it with the first ball he touched. He can boast, at 17 years and 109 days, of being the fourteenth youngest player to score in the Italian first division. Only two earliest players scored last season in the major European leagues: Ansu Fati (16 years and 10 months) and Eduardo Camavinga (17 years and one month).

Diallo is left-handed and usually plays right winger. It has a fine conduction, glued to the foot, and he likes to hit the ball with his good leg. This is precisely how his first goal in Italy came. Now he hopes to fulfill his dream of playing in a big game and offering evenings of glory to an entire Manchester United.
